Seen this ' Rover 45 ' the other day...
 

It was very convincing as a r45, they have changed everything inside & out, the only thing that wasnt so ' Rover ' was the colour!!

i seen one like that in ikea carpark months ago, had all mgzs kit on it though!!

It was in stratford, hows the new car going?

MG-R really should have made a ZS-T!

Wouldn't have been that hard to make it, I mean the Civic Aerodeck is virtually the same length as the saloon (I wouldn't be surprised if they used an Aerodeck for the basis of the Saloon!)

Saw this silver one a few years ago, where the MG octagons were they had fitted Honda badges. Seemed to be really well done conversion iirc.

Think as part of the shared design Honda got the estate and Rover got the saloon.

^^^

Honda didn't really need the Saloon as they already had the Accord that more than made up for the missing Saloon!

MG-R got a good deal when they started sharing the platforms, there is a hell of a lot of technology there that they benefited from (double wishbone suspension, etc...)

EDIT: That would look so much nicer with the mk2 180 kit on it! :)

Think the rear windows are shocking though!

Its like they had some glass cut for something else then thought "I know, this will do for the Aerodeck"

Looks better in dark colours simply to hide them a little.

But Rover had the "Accord" in the form of the 600

new car is going well thanks mate!!
